2 am

S told us yesterday that she has been having weird nightmares recently. So I promptly wake up in the middle of the night in a wave of panic - and need to get my bearings, take a look at my surroundings, try out my voice and hearing, touch R's sleeping body and sink back to sleep.
A huge wave of gratitude and relief for being here and knowing that should S wake up like that she is safe also and has B's sleeping body next to her.
